High there and there's video we're going to crop a bike inside a later hour.
But really we want to look at the color blending and we can see how the image of blending with the background
would offset a little bit color looks cool.
Let's learn how to do that now using blending modes in Illustrator.
All right first up open up the file called blending modes.
You don't have to just an orange box you could draw your own and it doesn't quite work as well with
like say solid black or solid white color blaming modes.
Interact with them differently from Colors.
OK so what I first want to do is my left hand with the image inside.
So easy to do right.
And so I'm going to grow my type 2.
I'm using Muzio Saens rounded.
I love it.
Such a cool font.
Whenever you do in font sizes as well if you want to have so big I hold down shift and hold down the
OCHI on a PC or the option kinematic to go Ropeik with the phone rather than using the option of hand.
Takes too long.
Next thing I want to do is I want to bring in my image and resize my command shift P is place will control
shift P on a PC picking the bike images click place and click and drag it so it's it's bigger than the
latah.
It just has to be covering it up.
OK then you need to sit at the back OK.
Right click and arranged in the back select both of them and command 7 K or control 7 on a PC that makes
a clipping mask.
And so that's the kind of basics right now we're going to play with the way it belongs with the backgrounds
with the slick.
I'm going to go over here to Posetti and this is the option here.
So where is normal Chardon going to multiply.
She will do is move this over so you can zoom in.
And when we do it it's so that you can kind of see it easier.
What color.
Now it would paint if you got like green in the background these weren't all do the exact same.
OK so if you got a different image it might look different.
So don't count on these 100 percent what they're going to do.
It's all a bit of experimentation.
Now I quite like the overlay and multiply that comb.
Now don't be afraid to use combinations that say we want to use overlay but also multiply song to make
a duplicate of this Whateley.
It still works right but with it over here it's not interacting with the orange background so it's still
overlay.
Anyway this guy here I'm going to change back to multiply and don't be afraid to play with you it has
to be as well if a fellow is a bit strong you can just drag the PSAT as well and you can lay them on
top of each other.
So you guys laying on top can they cut a kind of a combo deal.
Don't be afraid to offset them as well.
You might do some sort of cool like you know misprint and mis registration kind of 3D ish kind of you
know it anyway so that is playing with blending modes.
We've done it with images but you can do it with just colored text and you'll get different effects.
And this is where I sit now.
Class exercise what I'd like you to do is I want you to create your own letter with image.
You can use any of the other images from the exercise files Keds a few the bikes and you could use your
own you're enjoying later and your own background color and your own blending modes you can offset it.
You don't have to maybe you do a range where we did the whole bit.
OK I'd like to see what you do remember reach out to me on Instagram on Twitter.
I'd love to see it.
Also Postol projects on this Web site so that other people can see what you've done.
All right.
Go and do some blending mode magic.
